Where I Stand on Vietnam and Democratic Convention Critique
The article argues that young people fight in Vietnam not from fear but for a just cause and cites the 1968 Chicago Democratic National Convention. It criticizes Hubert Humphrey for backing the Johnson policy, notes the minority call for immediate ceasefire and negotiated withdrawal, and urges youth to reject past defeatist voices while affirming the spirit of future elections.

Power shift eyed in poverty program fight in Congress
House Republicans back a substitute giving governors broad control of federal poverty programs and limiting the OEO director's authority. The move accompanies a debate on extending the Office of Economic Opportunity for two years with $23 million for the current year, despite Nixon urging no change in programs and a $2 billion authorization. Rumfeld opposes the substitute, while Ayres says it has been altered to fit Nixon, and Rumsfeld hopes the substitute fails.
